Rio Tinto runs into pressure from investors to tip its hand

Article Abstract:

As British-based mining company Rio Tinto PLC enjoys the financial growth of a booming commodities market, investors are expressing concern that the company has not revealed its plans to stave off a potential earnings decline if the market cools. Nontheless, the company's chief executive officer, Leigh Clifford, is playing down growth concerns and has been reticent about any plans for making acquisitions or returning cash to shareholders.
